I need help trying to analyze this poem. We are only reading "The Knight Slays a Monster from Canto I. It is not a hard assignment, but I cannot understand. I thought it was supposed to be about Queen Elizabeth, and I cannot make the connection. I am probably way off about the Queen Elizabeth thing, but I just needed some help. Or if someone could give me an idea on what they think it is about, then maybe I can come up with my own concept.

Thank you

To understand the notes about the Catholic Church, you will also have to study the history of England from, say, Henry VIII through James I (like 1510-1625). Hank skank wanted to marry a bunch of babes, but the Pope said NO!. Plus, he wanted to scarf up all the church's wealth and property. It went downhill from there for his progeny, as well as those tortured and/or burned at the stake.

Thank you very much. I am working right now, but I will try to research a little bit whenever I get off. We went over it a little bit in class today. I am probably going to need some more help, we are going to start reading Hamlet, and I think I am going to have a difficult time with that to.

Walk in the park. We have a multitude of Hamlet experts here, some with well-turned ankles even. For example, they could cite the 24 times that Shakespeare used the word 'multitude' in his plays.
